This delightful coffee and chocolates shop, a bit off the beaten track, is well worth a detour…read more The shop itself is quite cute and very clean. My latte was perfectly made, the espresso strong and the foam plentiful. I accompanied it with cookies, but also chose chocolates from the wide array here to sweeten the remaining hours of my drive south.

The coffee is very affordable ($3.50 for a 16oz cappuccino) and great quality, and they have tons of different flavorings for specialty drinks as well! The barista was kind and welcoming and there were three tables for patrons to sit down and enjoy their drinks and snacks. Additionally, they have free WiFi which proved strong and reliable for working purposes the two hours I was there! Overall, I'd definitely recommend this shop and will be back!

Hospitality is a large part of the food service industry. I understand it's busy, perhaps there…read morewas a staff meeting that went south as we got there at opening. However, a welcoming hello or acknowledgement of a "good morning" is necessary if you want to retain business. I said something like thanks for working today, those donuts like really nice, to three different people, one of them the owner with zero response. I expect it from the post office, but not when buying overpriced overhyped donuts. The chocolate croissant had almost no chocolate in it. The other donuts were ok, coffee cake bland, spent $100. Still tipped. The vibe of the place is angry artist. Won't be back.

Luisa's is a great place to grab your weekend pastries or have a light breakfast…read more The ambiance is a smallish, quaint, in a home-like structure. One side has a long case filled with delicious cookies, donuts, croissants and pastries! Go early to avoid the wait and have the best pick of the large assortment of goodies! Luisa's Swedish Bakery is reminiscent of a 70's neighborhood bakery where kids peek into the pastry cases to choose their favorite Saturday morning sweet treats! Just pull a number when you arrive and a friendly staff member will take your order. House-made breads, coffee and lattes are tasty as well! Luisa's has a small café as well; however, it fills up fast and is small, so don't walk in expecting to get seated right away, especially with large parties. Definitely worth a visit! Go and peruse the pastry cases! We ate everything so quickly I didn't have time to take photos.

I love the rosemary shortbread, chocolate donuts, almond cream pastries, brownies, and kolache. The cupcake was also amazing but I have only seen it here one time. The raspberry paczki are good.

I'm very impressed at the selection of fresh pasta, sauces and desserts. I had a chicken pesto panini which was huge and delicious. I could only eat half of it. But that's ok because I saved room for cannoli which was amazing. There's a lovely spot for outdoor dining as well. I've been on the hunt for a good pesto sandwich and this place lives up to the hype! I placed a to go order online and it was ready in 15 mins. My only suggestion is wrap the Togo sandwiches in foil so they stay warm.

Let's start with the sweets because honestly, that's still this place's strong suit. I've grabbed…read morecookies and random goodies from the case before, and they've never missed. Today though, I walked in thinking this might be it... my hunt for the best fired pizza in South Bend might finally be over. I saw the giant pizza oven and thought, "yeah, this is about to be serious." So naturally... I stayed for lunch. It was busy, but the self-serve kiosk made ordering easy. I went all in Pepperoni Pizza, Cheesy Garlic Bread, Chicken Noodle Soup, and Shrimp Diavolo. For a packed lunch rush, 15-20 minutes wasn't bad at all. Now... the pizza. I wanted to love it. I really did. But it just didn't show up. It was pretty bland overall, and most of the flavor came from the cupped pepperoni which tasted like something you'd grab off a store shelf. The sauce tried to make a comeback, but it got completely overshadowed. The rest of the food? Honestly solid. The Chicken Noodle Soup hit the spot, and the Shrimp Diavolo was actually really good. So yeah the pizza hunt continues. The oven might look impressive, but it's not ending anyone's search just yet. But the sweets? Still a slam dunk. -The interior was clean and the seating area is large.
